Actor Jang Shin-young expressed her feelings about returning to the small screen after three years.

At the production presentation for MBC's new daily drama `The Woman Who Swallowed the Sun' held at MBC's Golden Mau Hall in Mapo-gu, Seoul on the 5th, Jang Shin-young said, `I started with the pressure to do well.'

"Woman Who swallowed the sun" is a drama about a woman's desperate revenge against a chaebol family in the name of her only daughter, a world in which the victim turns into a perpetrator.




Jang Shin-young plays Baek Seol-hee, a single mother full of bright and positive energy. Baek Seol-hee, who ran a snack bar and raised her daughter alone, is preparing for a desperate revenge that is different from before as she is caught in a whirlwind of fate in which her small but happy daily life collapses in an instant.

In particular, it is also drawing attention that it is the first time in three years that it has returned to the small screen since the 2022 drama 'Cleaning Up'. Jang Shin-young was nervous and excited because it was his first work in three years. I started with the pressure of 'Let's do well for now', but as I was filming, I got a little bit of energy, he said.

Attention is also focusing on the fact that it is her first return to her main job since the controversy over her husband's affair. Kang Kyung-joon was sued for damages worth 50 million won in December 2023 on suspicion of having an affair with a married woman A. The trial in question ended with the claimant's approval in September last year.




At that time, Jang Shin-young "I talked a lot with my husband. I blamed myself and reflected on myself countless times. We have had a painful time that is difficult to put into writing, but we are only trying to live in a family again for the sake of our children."

Since then, Jang Shin-young, who appeared on entertainment programs such as SBS 'My Ugly Baby' and KBS2 'New Release Pyeon Restaurant', has also appeared on home shopping channels in February. However, it is attracting a lot of attention because it has been a long time since he returned to his main job as a positive electrode.

Jang Shin-young fell in love while reading the script. The director made me focus, and thanks to this, I forgot the nervous moment. I was able to act more like Baek Seolhee," he added.




MBC's new daily drama `The Woman Who swallowed the Sun' will premiere at 7:05 p.m. on the 9th.
